Did that Yaris once again broke down?
This fucking yaris.
Neuville lucky once again second rally in a row already
huge boost for him the in championship now
Slow last stage must've been an issue already ?
Yeah, Tänak will be out of the championship fight soon like this. He can win 5 in a row at some point but the car will break down on the others, just nothing to do.
I just laugh at how useless the toyota big heads are...
they have hired a useless nobody as a team manager who just has as a goal for him and his close friends to become as rich as possible until the japanese autists wake up and hire someone with actual skills...
The car is 3 years old now and its still unreliable and has the same issues in setup as year one... a random person picked up from tokyo streets eating noodles would achieve exactly the same results as those idiots in gazzo rally team.
what a laughable joke...
another angle from the huge roll of Bulaccia

flagMeeke Kris - Marshall Sebastian
"My car is leaking some oil, yet we are able to keep an interesting pace"
That's rallying. This thing happens. On rough stages like that you drive a little bit steady than without head. That's why Ogier always survive. And almost everytime get to the podium without pace.
Ogier now 4 sec from Meeke and 15,5 from Mikkelsen
Can be 2nd imho
he said Mikkelsen is losing oil not him
ok need to go and install my up/down quickshifter for track use on my motorbike now that the rally is over...
enjoy the cruising of the big stage.
i predict Ogier will be second after this long stage
Tanak takes more risks than ogier or neuville. I wouldn't day he takes too much risks, his car should be able to handle it.
But he sometimes goes flat out in situations where the sensible thing to do is to slow down a bit.
And do you really believe that tanak was not on the limit? Pushing for the lead, setting fastest times. Lol.
Latvala 12,5 from Sordo,lets see if he can take some time at the long one
Yes, definitely not on the first two stages this morning where he was on par with Neuville and a little faster on next. Definitely he pushed on the long one because the gaps were massive there.
His normal pace is just so good nowadays that he keeps still setting fastest times even not pushing, like last year here in Argentina when he had already big gap while leading but still won stages left and right.
Thats my opinion. im just getting fed up already that every time everyone here says he pushed too much when he retires while no one mentions it when Ogier or Neuville reitre.
wtf, that's rallying and if you want to win you have to push.. Toyota has unlimited budget and still unreliable car..
If he call the most lucky guy out there we always know that this is Ogier. With so much moments, technical issues, spins and obviously off pace he always escape big issues and get to the good positions by the expense of others. Whenever he is not that lucky he start to using holes in the rules and make most out of it.
But on the other hand let's not call that luck at all. He is experienced enough to deal with such moments. With Polo days he have nt have many of it, but since Ford and now Citroen days he have a lot of it and he is strugling and still won at the end of the year. And have a little feeling he will win it again once more. Neuville and Tanak keep making stupid mistakes and don't take advantage of his problems.
After all this time and we still dont know why Tanak was slow on the first stage or why he stopped...
That must be so remote.
about the barrier where Ogier lost the power steering from hit
Budar
"The rule is very clear: you have to follow the road book and the road book is very clear: there is a barrier and you go [left]."
Ogier added: "We went left as we should, but we could see the track to the right [of the fence].
"For now, we think that those who have not gone [left] will have problems because they have not followed the road book.
"During the recos the side of the road was blocked, that's why I hesitated and slightly touched the barrier"

Mikkelsen fastest so far, no oil leak then i guess. Neuville crusing now
Autosport
Toyota is still awaiting information about the nature of Tanak's problem, but a technical issue is likely to be to blame as there are no outwardly visible signs of damage to his car.
